The interstellar portal opens, bringing in a ship that should no longer
exist. A battleship spoiling for a fight, yet the war with Earth ended two
generations ago. The vessel drops off a Water-breather, a type of Backworlder
thought to be extinct. She claims one of Craze’s friends is a traitor who
summoned the enemy to Pardeep Station. A betrayal worse than his father’s, if
Craze lives to worry about it.

mostly and has a slight obsession with Jane Austen. Mary blogs at http://www.mpaxauthor.com/blog/

Hi, Angela! You've been trending sci-fi lately! New favorite genre? I like skipping around also. Keeps things fresh. I've sent a link to your site to my niece - an avid reader. Hope she sees all these great books you're featuring.

I have a book sitting on my side-table (I'm supposed to be reading Game of Thrones next, but I have...just HAVE to sneak this one in.). It's all about the intricate relationship between Margaret Thatcher and Ronald Reagan. Now to some that sounds like a snore - but Ronald Reagan's life fascinates me. He was an extremely interesting man - a man from a different time with a very solid character he maintained throughout his life. To this date, he remains my favorite president to read about. John Adams is a close second. (Whoa...nerd alert. I've outed myself. Ha!)
